UK's Frost: Delicate balance in Good Friday agreement risks being unsettled

"We're trying to find solutions on the Northern Ireland protocol but there is not a huge amount of engagement from the EU," David Frost, the British minister responsible for implementing the Brexit deal, said on Monday, as reported by Reuters.

"The delicate balance in N. Ireland Good Friday agreement risks being unsettled," Frost added.

Following these remarks, the UK's FTSE 100 Index retreated modestly from session highs and was last seen trading at 7,080, where it was still up 0.27% on a daily basis.
